Three hilarious classic comedies starring Charlie Chaplin

Event Details:

The Strand Theater presents three hilarious classic comedies starring Charlie Chaplin, with live piano accompaniment by Ben Model. Before establishing his infamous and beloved “little tramp” screen person, Chaplin made a few dozen slapstick shorts that set his antics in different workplaces and social situations. The program features some of the best from his 1916-17 series for the Mutual Company:

In THE RINK (1916), Charlie is a waiter who makes a mess of his orders and a wild roller-skating party, in THE IMMIGRANT (1917) he “comes across” looking for a better life in America, and Charlie is tailor’s assistant who impersonates a nobleman at a society party in THE COUNT (1916). Renowned silent film accompanist-historian Ben Model will introduce the films and will accompany them with his own scores on piano. Model will also be selling and signing copies of his new book, “The Silent Film Universe”.

About Ben Model:

Ben Model is one of the nation’s leading silent film accompanists, performing on both piano and theatre organ. Over the past 44 years, he has created and performed thousands of live scores for silent films at universities, museums, and historic theaters, and is one of the few exponents of this craft who is working at it full-time. Ben is a resident film accompanist at the Museum of Modern Art (NY) and at the Library of Congress’ Packard Campus Theatre, and he accompanies silents at classic film festivals around the USA and internationally.

A 250th Commemoration: Onward to Canada 

This event features the largest number of reproduction wooden vessels in a reenactment event to cross two lakes, recreating the Northern Army embarkment from Ticonderoga!

As the nation prepares to celebrate its 250th anniversary, Fort Ticonderoga invites you to step directly into history with its groundbreaking REAL TIME REVOLUTION™, an immersive historical experience. During the dramatic 2-day reenactment event August 30-31, witness an unparalleled glimpse into the launch of the Northern Continental Army as they prepare to drive British regulars from Canada.

The “Onward to Canada” REAL TIME REVOLUTION™ reenactment will transport visitors 250 years ago, to the day, at Ticonderoga. Experience the arrival of waves of Connecticut and New York encamping together the first time together. Watch as they bring in their equipment hauled with carts and wagons drawn by horses and oxen. Thrill at the crackle of muskets and roar of cannon as this new American Army maneuvers in combined forces. Meet the generals of this nascent Continental Army command and discover their effort to cultivate an alliance with Canadians and neutrality with native Americans. Smell the aroma of rations cooked in the first encampment of the Northern Continental Army.

This weekend-long event also features a unique prelude on Friday August 29, with an encampment of troops in Hague, NY on the shores of Lake George. These reenactors will embark at dawn from Hague Town Beach, rowing down Lake George to Mossy Point in Ticonderoga on Saturday, August 30. Don’t miss the march of these soldiers from Lake George through the village of Ticonderoga beginning at 10am and onward to Fort Ticonderoga.

On Sunday, August 31, watch the army assemble at Fort Ticonderoga and practice firing “en masse” together, before they break camp and embark on reproduction wooden bateau on Lake Champlain. See the spectacle sight of oars and sails on this storied water, as Fort Ticonderoga recreates the start of the American expedition into Canada.
